We never need an excuse to slap the ol' baloney pony. Name the time and place, and we'll happily be there getting off, for no reason whatsoever. It's one of our favorite pastimes, but unfortunately we have to keep it on the DL most of the time in this twisted, oppressive American society. Over in China, however, they're doing it right.

Covering Hurricane Sandy has proven to be quite a feat. It's difficult to keep up with all the information pouring into the newsrooms, but who gets to experience the brunt of it all? Reporters. Poor, poor reporters.

Few things brighten our day more than puppies. They're troopers when it comes to adorably tortuous makeovers, after all. OK, so they might not be superfans of unfortunate haircuts or miniature shoes. But we've discovered something dogs really enjoy-- celebrating their birthdays. What's not to love about party hats and cupcakes made out of dog food and blowing out candles and noisemakers?! Our point exactly.

Discovering a Pikachu pug or a Rabbi cat will never, ever get old. We have absolutely no explanation regarding this adorably aww-worthy obsession, but we’re pretty sure most of you will agree with us. But why does it seem like we limit our dressing-up-pets possibilities to dogs, cats and the occasional baby pig? It’s about time sheep took a whack at this whole costume funny business, and we couldn’t have hoped for a better debut.

Robert Kelly is one of those badass guys who's hysterically blunt while being completely sincere. Basically, he's one of the coolest dudes around. Kelly is a New York-based actor and comedian who recently penned a book with his buddies Joe DeRosa and Bill Burr, ‘Cheat: A Man’s G

If you’ve ever taken the time to really listen to street performers, you’ll notice that most are extremely talented, and unfortunately, they often go unnoticed. But these guys have brought street performance to an entirely new level of awesome, and they’re definitely gaining attention.

Babies and lemons go together like toddlers and warheads or skunks and kittens. Basically, the combination musters up incomparable adorableness, and you know we’ll never pass up anything even remotely adorable. So when we discovered there is a whole slew of mini lemon-eaters bearing extreme sour faces on YouTube, we just had to share them!

Few things are worse than going to the doctor. We mean, what’s the upside of shelling out cash for some creepy guy with a porno ‘stache to give us a hernia test? We could trick our girlfriends into giving us a one for free. There are, however, a few exceptions where we’d have to suck it up and make a visit to the doc’s. For example, if we found ourselves with an eel stuck up our butt.
